How do I change print margins on notes in Powerpoint?

I'm a student who has lots of powerpoint lecture and notes to print
out.....so I like printing out the notes page and changing the printer
preference to 2 slides per page on landscape. The problem is, even when I go
to master notes page and stretch out the slide and the text box to near the
edge of the paper, the final print ends up with a 1 inch margin around the
8.5X11 sheet of paper. I know that through Word, I can change the print
margins by going to setup, but Powerpoint doesn;t have this option (at least
not anywhere I can see). Thanks.

PowerPoint does not allow you to have print margins like Word.

If this feature is important for you, do put it across to Microsoft through
the MSWISH initiative:

The handouts (2-up and so on) are controlled by the handouts master, not the
notes master; and unfortunately, you can't change the position/size of slides
on the handouts master.

Hop over to http://www.mvps.org/skp and look for Shyam's Handout Wizard. That
should be just what you're looking for.
